Shirley Fulton has such a good heart that even though she already sends the Salvation Army a generous gift during the holidays, she always drops in some bills at any of the Salvation Army red kettles she comes upon during her daily routine.

This year, Fulton also doubled her donation to FLORIDA TODAY's Reaching Out Holiday Fund, a gift she made in memory of her husband, Bob, and her mother, Gwen Hanson. The last couple of years have not been merry for the Melbourne resident, who lost her mother two years ago and her husband last year.
